Got it on my 3rd try... the first one I failed immediately. It asked me Missouri first, and I must have just barely clicked into Illinois. Second one asked for Idaho on my 4th or 5th state with nothing around it and I just missed into Montana.

I know it takes geographic knowledge to win this, but the order in which the States appear certainly helps.
I apparently don't know my New England states (-4) or southern states east of the Mississippi (-3). Got all the others

I managed 47 with a lot of skipping. Damn you, Delaware.

Does it let you skip one and move on to others or is it forced order?

I feel like it would be easy to fill in with big states first.

It's stupid that they leave the one you clicked shaded. That makes it easier as you go. I got 94% and the once i missed were fat fingers on my phone like Delaware, but id have done way worse if the map cleared after each answer.

I always forget how north Iowa is and that Arkansas borders Texas.

I want a quiz that gives you two cities and you have to classify them spatially relative to one another. Id suck at that.

82 percent.

Of course I get Rhode Island and missed Alaska (thanks to a fat finger :lol:) kind of tough to do it on mobile.

I'm installing new flooring. Toward the end of the day I was tired and not paying as much attention as I should have. I was using a mallet to lock the planks together and hit the back of my finger so hard blood came out the front of my finger. I didn't even know that was possible. :lol:

Oddly enough, it doesn't hurt at all. There's just a small bruise. I think the bleeding saved me from a really nasty blood blister so it worked out for the best.

Man I love geography trivia. Thank you.

There used to be a game where it would name a landmark, city, etc. somewhere in the world and you had to click on the world map. The closer you got, the more points you got. Every three or four clues there was a cutoff where your game would be over if your score wasn't high enough. Need to find that.
